When trying to boot with the maxcpus=1 option, the -rt kernel seems to hang
somewhere in acpi_processor_init().
I tested mainline 2.6.21 and it does boot with maxcpus=1. 2.6.20-rt8,
2.6.21-rt1, 2, and 4 all hang at:
Calling initcall 0xffffffff817a41df: acpi_processor_init+0x0/0xdf()
when booted with initcall_debug and maxcpus=1. I traced this only as far as
the call to acpi_bus_register_driver. So this seems to have been introduced
by the -rt patch. I'm not sure if I should try and see when it was
introduced (as 2.6.16-rt22 does not fail) or if I should head "down the acpi
rabbit hole"...
Thanks,

Be careful, when sticking your head into this hole !
I try to nail it down.
